A lot of time it would be nice if we had the ability to add to the set of tokens that forms makes available when a user loads up a form process. 

Instead of just having the email, current logged in username and stuff like that, it would be nice if we had a mechanism to add other relevant information about a user to their account and forever have it linked. I understand being able to use databases, but say we want to have a short name, or slang name for a user inside a dropdown. I am now forced to have that dropdown be changed manually in order to have the account names associated with it for assigning that user a task in the next step of the form. 

Instead, if that short name were associated to an account as an expected attribute, then we could use a database to serve up the list of available people as it may be ever changing / unique per user.
